What should I look for in vinegar choices? Any recommendations?

 

My understanding was that any vinegar of at least 5% acidity will suffice for preservation.  Without going to check, I believe I learned this from "Saving the Season". 

 

I usually sub in a relatively cheap white wine vinegar for vinegar-pickles, "Vilux".  For quick pickles, I've been known to use fruit vinegars; mostly because I don't like fruit vinegars in almost anything else.  A fact I discovered after I'd bought a whole bunch of 'em.
